ENJOYING THE RIDE I think I’m safe in saying that we’ve all been experiencing our own personal rollercoaster ride since the beginning of the New Year. Our physical as well as our ethereal bodies are adjusting to the New Energetic Paradigm. What an amazing time to be present and participating in. Even so, it is a time that’s bringing birthing pains as we are being forced to release any of the old lower vibration behaviors/stuff that we haven’t quite purged yet. No one is immune. The truly fantastic news is that this new energy present is/will fully support the positive changes we make in our lives. So think BIG. Breathe, relax and let go. Above all trust and believe and throw your hands up in the air and say Woohoo!!!

WINDS OF CHANGE The winds of change seem to be escalating the release of unresolved issues for a great many. Fear is one of the most prevalent states of being that the majority of people are experiencing at this time. This fear has many faces: fear of change, fear of lack, fear of ruin, fear of difference and so on. With the rising vibration of the planet, many layers are being stripped away from all sentient beings and the planet. This process is creating a firestorm of emotional energies raging across the planet and within each of us. Fear in itself is not a negative emotion. It is only when we allow fear to immobilize us or cause us to act in a self destructive manner, that it becomes problematic. Fear can be a wonderful motivator, launching us onto new paths to explore and experience or stopping us short of physical or emotional harm. I would like to put forth the idea of changing our perception of fear. Instead of resisting this emotion, we can use it to our advantage, motivating us to shift forward in a positive way. My method, envisioning my emotional fear as a doorway, sometimes they appear very elaborate and this seems to be tied to how small or large my fear is. I take a deep breath and walk through and once on the other side it never fails to amaze me how immediate the release of my fear is. Of course, I don’t recommend this method if you come on a bear in the woods.

HAPPINESS If you ask someone what happiness means to them, chances are they would say: money in the bank; the car of their dreams; or a big house. Unfortunately, western society keeps perpetuating the illusion of, The American Dream, when in fact, obtaining, maintaining and protecting assets can create just the opposite result--unhappiness. Western style societies are riddled with stress and all the physical manifestations of it. A great deal of this has been brought on by excessive debt and very little time to enjoy family, friends, having “me” time or getting to play with our toys. Why? Because we are working so hard to keep the illusion alive. Picture a juggler that has 20 balls in the air at once. He has no time to rest because it is a full time job keeping those balls from falling. This is what I call existing. It is not really living. A friend recently made this statement, “here I am almost homeless, jobless and the happiest I have ever been”. Crazy? Not really. It’s amazing how happy we can be when we don't put requirements on it. My philosophy in both my practice and personal life is this…Keep it simple. I won’t define what would make me happy, but I can tell you what has made me happy. Happiness has come in many shapes and sizes in my life, from what I would have expected to the unexpected. They include: Following and honoring my path Meditating Yoga Making a difference Coffee with friends A good meal Doing things that feed my soul Thought provoking conversation Being out in nature Laughing, dancing, singing and playing… just to name a few. How about you?

GET OUT OF MY WAY! How often do we busy ourselves with trivial things to avoid moving forward? Could it be that we are afraid of failing or surprisingly, succeeding? Why do we no longer jump with the enthusiasm of a child moving headlong into their dreams? Believing and trusting that all things are possible? Remember when your bike became a mighty steed carrying you through fields of grass swaying in the breeze, or the ancient oak in your backyard became a mountain peak to climb? Somewhere along the line we have shut down that very basic part of ourselves. We have lost our innocent eyes, our innate trust in ourselves and what we see, hear and feel. More importantly, we lost our belief that all dreams are possible. So ask yourself the hard question: am I standing in my own way? If the answer is yes, what am I so afraid of? What is the worst that could happen if I were to follow my dreams? It is like learning to ride a bike. We all fell the first few times, but we got back up and kept on trying until tada! We were riding off into the sunset, relishing the new sense of freedom that it brought. Remember?

Hello,
I decided that there are several of my earlier posts that are more pertinent than ever and I would like to begin at the beginning. I hope that you find that they resonate with you and provide some insight in the days to come. My name is Kate McKenna. As we all are, I am many things. However, the deepest part of me that cannot be shed like an outgrown coat, the part I carry as I pass from life to life, is psychic/medium/healer and animal communicator. It is my life’s passion, which brings great joy as well as heartache—but such is life.

After encouragement from friends and clients to get myself on the web, this is my first attempt at a blog page and blogging. What an odd sounding word, blogging. It sounds like something they would learn to do at Hogwarts.

After the first day of trial and error--yes, we are talking a full 8-9 hours of frustrations and aha moments-- it finally came together as the page you see before you. Knowing that it will metamorphous by tweaks here and there over time appeals to me. After all, life is about change. The Buddhists say the only thing in life that is permanent is impermanence. It is through this catabolic process that room is made for the new potentialities that are waiting to come into our lives. Resistance is futile and, more importantly, to resist creates unnecessary pain. When we allow and give over to the process, we can manifest more quickly in our lives.

My intention for having this blog is to share my work experiences both through my psychic/medium work and as a healer. Truth be told it is rarely separated into those neat compartments, but intermingled in the most profound ways.

Part of my work as a healer is to provide spiritual counseling. All guidance given comes through me from Spirit, so my work is geared specifically for each individual, whether they are two-legged or four-legged. I suppose you could think of me as a spiritual version of Dear Abby. So with that said, I will be happy to answer your life questions or questions you might have about my work.

I am very excited to bring this new aspect in, as embracing change creates new and positive energy in our lives and opens fresh avenues of potential. With Infinite Gratitude and Infinite Love, Kate

Sacred Feminine

The Sacred Feminine is being ushered in with the power of the Lunar Eclipse tonight and the second phase of Venus in Transit on the 6th, the first having occurred in 2004. Venus in Transit comes approximately every 121 years in pairs at 8 years apart. We will not see this again in our lifetime. If you sit quietly, you will feel the power building as Universe pushes to bring forth the powers and energies of the 5th dimension. Hold on tight. It’s about to get really interesting. Don’t forget to smile and say woohoo!!!!
